0% by weight, more preferably 1 to 40% by weight. When the content of the silicone-based compound is more than 60% by weight, the adhesive strength to the adhesive tape tends to decrease, and when the protective film is removed, it may be difficult to adhere to the adhesive tape. %, The cut edge will adhere to the surface of the protective film of another polarizing plate or retardation plate when the ones cut to the target polarization angle or phase angle are stacked and handled.

The formation of the abrasion-resistant layer is carried out by applying a curable resin composition to one surface of the film and curing the composition. As a coating method, a reverse roll coating method, a gravure roll coating method, a rod coating method, an air knife coating method, or the like can be employed. Curing of the applied curable resin composition is performed by, for example, active energy rays or heat. Ultraviolet rays, visible rays, electron beams, X-rays, α-rays, β-rays, γ-rays and the like are used as the active energy rays. As a heat source, an infrared heater, a heat oven, or the like is used.

You. The surface resistivity of the wearable layer is preferably 5 × 10 ⁹ Ω
Less, more preferably 1 × 10⁹ It is less than Ω.

In the present invention, the coefficient of friction of the wear-resistant layer with respect to the polyester film is preferably 0.3 or less, more preferably 0.25 or less. The reason is as follows. The films that have undergone the abrasion resistant layer forming step are stored in a stacked state before being carried into the adhesive layer forming step. If the coefficient of friction of the wear-resistant layer exceeds 0.3,
During the above storage, the abrasion-resistant layer and the film that are in contact with each other at the top and bottom may be blocked (fixed) and the handling may be deteriorated.

In the present invention, the surface roughness (Ra) of the wear-resistant layer is preferably 0.03 μm or less. That is, the surface roughness (Ra) of the wear-resistant layer is 0.03 μm
In the case where it exceeds, a problem may be caused in an inspection accompanied by an optical evaluation in a state where a protective film is stuck, due to a decrease in transparency. Therefore, in the present invention, it is recommended to adjust the surface roughness (Ra) of the wear-resistant layer in order to perform the above-mentioned inspection with the protective film attached without any problem. The surface roughness (Ra) of the wear-resistant layer is more preferably 0.025 μm or less.

In the present invention, the abrasion-resistant layer preferably has a peeling force of 500 gf / 50 mm or less with respect to an adhesive described below. The reason is as follows. The liquid crystal display panel surface protection film of the present invention is stored in a stacked state. During this storage, the adhesive layer that accidentally protrudes from between the polyester film and the release film may come into contact with the abrasion-resistant layer of another protective film in the step of cutting to a predetermined size. Then, the contact of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer with the wear-resistant layer causes the adhesion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive to the wear-resistant layer when the adhesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive increases.

In the present invention, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer comprises a known pressure-sensitive adhesive, for example, an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive, a rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, a block copolymer-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, a polyisobutylene-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, a silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive. Generally, the pressure-sensitive adhesive is configured as a composition such as an elastomer, a tackifier, a softener (plasticizer), a deterioration inhibitor, a filler, a crosslinking agent, and the like.

As the elastomer, for example, natural rubber, synthetic isoprene rubber, reclaimed rubber, SBR, block copolymer, polyisobutylene, butyl rubber, polyacrylate copolymer, silicone rubber, etc. are used in accordance with the type of each of the above-mentioned adhesives. No. As the tackifier, for example, rosin, hydrogenated rosin ester, terpene resin, aromatic modified terpene resin, hydrogenated terpene resin, terpene phenol resin, aliphatic petroleum resin, aromatic petroleum resin, aliphatic oil-based water Additional petroleum resins, cumarone / indene resins, styrene resins, alkylphenol resins, xylene resins, and the like.

Examples of the softener include paraffinic process oil, naphthenic process oil, aromatic process oil, liquid polybutene, liquid polyisobutylene, liquid polyisoprene, dioctyl phthalate, dibutyl phthalate, castor oil, and tall oil. Can be
Examples of the deterioration inhibitor include an aromatic amine derivative, a phenol derivative, and an organic thioacid salt.

The filler includes, for example, zinc white, titanium white, calcium carbonate, clay, pigment, carbon black and the like. When a filler is contained, it is used within a range that does not significantly affect the total light transmittance of the protective film. As a cross-linking agent, for example, sulfur and a vulcanization aid and a vulcanization accelerator (typically, zinc dibutylthiocarbamate and the like) are used for cross-linking a natural rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive. Polyisocyanates are used as crosslinking agents capable of crosslinking natural rubber and carboxylic acid copolymerized polyisoprene as raw materials at room temperature. A polyalkylphenol resin is used as a crosslinking agent having a characteristic of heat resistance and non-staining property in crosslinking agents such as butyl rubber and natural rubber. Crosslinking of adhesives made from butadiene rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber and natural rubber includes organic peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide and dicumyl peroxide, and non-staining adhesives are obtained.
Polyfunctional methacrylic esters are used as a crosslinking assistant. In addition, there is formation of a pressure-sensitive adhesive by crosslinking such as ultraviolet crosslinking and electron beam crosslinking.

The formation of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is carried out by applying a pressure-sensitive adhesive to the other surface of the film. As a coating method, the same method as that used for forming the wear-resistant layer can be adopted. The thickness of the adhesive layer is generally in the range of 0.5 to 10 μm, preferably 1 to 5 μm. In the present invention, the adhesive force of the adhesive layer is such that when the adhesive tape is lifted by pressing the adhesive tape against the wear-resistant layer, the adhesive layer is peeled off from the surface of the polarizing plate or retardation plate together with the uniaxially oriented polyester film. It is adjusted to such a range. In this case, the adhesive force between the polarizing plate or retardation plate and the adhesive layer is 5 to 2
It is preferable to set it in the range of 00 gf / 50 mm. Then, on the surface of the adhesive layer, a known release film is laminated from the viewpoint of facilitating the handling.

The total light transmittance (TL) of the laminated film (liquid crystal display panel surface protective film) of the present invention constituted as described above is not particularly limited, but is usually 80%.
Or more, preferably 85% or more. As a result, an inspection involving optical evaluation such as display ability, hue, contrast, and contamination of a liquid crystal display panel can be performed with the protective film adhered to the surface of the polarizing plate or retardation plate.
